August 27, 2017 The Summer of Volunteering continues for Dr. Lopes :)

Dr. Lopes attended the 2017 Invictus Games Volunteer Summit today as she is volunteering as the venue medical lead at the Powerlifting venue.

“The Invictus Games is an international Paralympic-style[1] multi-sport event, created by Prince Harry of the Commonwealth Realms, in which wounded, injured or sick armed services personnel and their associated veterans take part in sports including wheelchair basketballsitting volleyball, and indoor rowing.[1] Named after Invictus, Latin for “unconquered” or “undefeated”, the event was inspired by the Warrior Games, a similar event held in the United States. The first Invictus Games took place in 2014 at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London, United Kingdom.” (Wikipedia)
